Monster World chapter 5 training and a shadow of the past returns.
It has been two weeks since Sarah came to Monstra and she’s just began her training for the pearless journey ahead and she’s doing better then anyone expected. She has mainly trained with striker and ziran to learn how to fight with her fists and feet. Ok Sarah here it comes, are you ready? Ziran asked. Bring it on! I can take anything you can throw at me. Alright if you say so. Ziran charged at sarah with his arms in a ready to punch position, he swung at her fiercely but she ducked and counter attacked with a upper cut punch. Heyah. She cried out but her hit wasn’t as effective as she hoped. He quickly got back up on his feet and delivered a finishing blow to her belly. Hiyah. The punch knocked the wind out of Sarah and she was on her knees. Cough, cough. Take it easy this is only a training exercise. Sarah said angrily. Oh im sorry, I don’t know my own strength. He said and he’s right, his strength is equal to a dozen men and he’s only going to get stronger. That’s enough training for now Sarah, ziran you two should take a break but you should go see boa about those bruises Sarah. Koji said. Yes master. Sarah responded but her gut hurt more than a regular belly ache so talking was a little hard. I’ll go with you, I want to make sure that boa doesn’t accidently turn you into a bug or something. Striker said.
They walked all the way to boa’s room and found him mixing up a potion. Oh hi guys. We need your help. Striker said. What do you need guys? Boa asked. Well ziran went a little overboard with the training and sorta punch her in the belly. Striker said. Ok I’ll whip up a healing potion to fix that right up. Boa said as he notice Sarah was holding her stomach in pain. Boas specialty is casting spell and mixing potions, really good one’s too. Here you go Sarah. Boa said. Thanks boa. Sarah said and she drank it and just like that her pain was gone. How do you feel? Striker asked Wow I feel great, that potion really worked, Thank you boa. Sarah said. Your welcome anytime Sarah. Boa said.
To tell the truth Sarah had been sparing with all three boys and she was getting better with every fight. But now comes a real difficult challenge, Sarah was gonna have to fight all three three of them with only her bare hands. Alright young sarah if you are to be ready for what lies ahead, you must be able to fight many enemies at once. Are you ready? Koji asked. Sarah was nervous about fighting striker, ziran and boa all at the same time but she built up enough courage to say. Yes im ready, just promise me that you’ll go easy on me. Alright Sarah, this is practice after all. Striker said. Then koji held his hand forward and said; Ready? Fight! The three warriors all charged at Sarah and she did the best she could to dodge their attacks. Ziran came at her with the same moves as before, only this time Sarah dodge the stomach blow and gave him a taste of his own medicine. Ugh. Ziran said as he was gasping for breath. Then striker came from behind and grabbed her arms in a holding position . Very good Sarah but not good enough. Sorry but this match is over. Striker said but he didn’t like holding her like this but he had to test her limits. Good work striker now I’ll finish it up. Boa said coming in for a swift attack. Sarah struggled but she couldn’t get free. Oh I wish I could break free from his hold and win this fight. Sarah thought to herself and all of a sudden her locket lit up again and Sarah felt something stirring from inside her body. Come on Sarah show me what you can do. Striker thought as a weird glowing light came from Sarah’s necklace and then her whole body lit up and an overwhelming power knocked both striker and boa out of the ring. Woah Was all both boys could say as they fell down. Ziran looked and saw what just happened and said; What was that weird light? I don’t know, I didn’t want to lose and then I felt an amazing power and it felt great. Sarah explained to the belly ached ziran. Koji was speechless, her explanation only amazed him even more so. She is a unique individual, she knocked down both striker and boa at the same time. If they weren’t holding back they would have won easily, but even they can’t do that yet. Koji thought. Now he knew Sarah was getting better but he hadn’t seen an ability like that since himself.
Wow Sarah, that was amazing. I never saw a move like that before. Striker said. Me neither that was stupendous. Boa said with as much amazement as ziran and striker. That was an old ability used to power ones self up to knock down you foes by releasing your energy. Koji spoke after being silent for so long. I didn’t expect you to know how to do that, very impressive Sarah. I didn’t know I could do that and I’ve never really used that move before. Sarah said still surprised by that power she released. No way, you’ve never used that move before? Striker asked. No, never. Sarah replied. Well that move did take some skill to use so effectively. Boa said. Yeah that was great we ought to learn that move. Koji can you show us how to do that? Ziran asked. Yes but it’ll require all of you focus On your inner strength like Sarah did just a moment ago. Ok were up for it. Striker said. Good because it will be difficult to master such a difficult move. They all looked a little worried about what Koji just said but he then said; Don’t be discouraged, all of you have enough potential to do this task. Once you’ve mastered releasing your inner strength you’ll be able to use moves you didn’t know you could do. Sweet striker said. Sounds like fun. Sarah said happily. Im up for it. Ziran said. Me too I need to learn how to use magic attacks, I am a wizard. Boa said. Im glad to see your all up for it( they’ll have to be, I have a bad feeling something dangerous lurks in their future). Koji said and then thought to himself. He’s right.
Far off from the village where Koji’s home is, a castle lies within a wasteland. The inside of this gothic castle was very scary. There were statues of masked beasts lined up in every hallway, dust covered the many books of the castle’s library, the portraits looked as if they were looking straight at you. Sometimes you could hear a faint voice on the air blowing inside the castle walls, it was an evil spirit calling out for revenge. But today was different, this time the spirit could manifest himself into a ghostly form you could see with your own eyes
His ghostly body glowed with a frightening red and purple aura, his eyes glowed ruby red in the dark, and his voice shrieks like a banshee. This awful spirit has a name and his name is “Stripes” and awful villainous man who caused a terrible war just to dominate the world and just to prove that he’s unstoppable. Im Back in the land of the living, but im not alive. I must awaken my minions and together we will find that spirit sword’s fragments and destroy them. Stripes said and then he laughed manically into the night.
Meanwhile back at the dojo, Koji just got done training striker, ziran boa, and Sarah for the day and tucked them into bed. Sarah was begining to have droughts about being able to get home. Hey striker. Sarah said. Huh? Do you think we’ll be able to find those sword pieces and get me back home? She asked. Of course, we’ll get you home, Koji wouldn’t lie about something like that. Do you think I could come see your world? Along with ziran and boa of course. Striker asked while wondering what Sarah’s home on Earth is like. Ah, maybe but you guys would stick out like a sore thumb. Sarah quoted and she’s right, there aren’t any boys with pointed ears on Earth. Maybe we can figure out a way to disguise me and the guys so nobody gets scared by us. Striker said. That’s a good idea striker but lets figure that out tomorrow. Why? Because we need to get to sleep and Koji’s watching us. Both of you better get to sleep or you’ll be in no shape for training tomorrow. Koji said while looking at the two friend laying in separate beds. Okay goodnight. They both said. Goodnight striker, goodnight Sarah, sweet dreams.(They’ll need to sleep because that bad feeling just got worse).Will striker, ziran, boa and Sarah be ready for their journey and what is Stripes planning? Find out in “chapter 6 The Journey begins with a Nightmare”.
